POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene February 2017: Producers succeed in bringing about a trend turnaround / Mostly moderate margin increase / Imports from Middle East down to a trickle / Further price rises expected in March / Maintenance turnarounds restrict supply	03.03.2017
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics February 2017: All-time high of PS and ABS prices / Exorbitant SM price increase fuels skyrocketing notations / No full cost transfer / Price rally continues / EPS also approaching record high	03.03.2017
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene February 2017: Producers pass costs through for all grades / Copo sees first margin gains / Supply limitations palpable in March / Demand swells / Prices rising sharply	03.03.2017
POLYMER PRICES PVC February 2017: Producers achieve the hoped-for trend reversal / Brisk orders and export opportunities allow initial small margin improvements / Clearer upwards movement in March over a broad front	02.03.2017
POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend February 2017: Moderate margin improvements for the polyolefins / PVC still slightly weaker / Styrenics explode along with the monomer / Upward pressure to continue	13.02.2017
POLYMER PRICES Styrenics January 2017: Steep climb continues as SM drives / Most of cost rise passed on in direct deals / Rally gathers momentum / Historic highs likely for PS and ABS in February	03.02.2017
POLYMER PRICES Polypropylene January 2017: European producers fail to improve margins as costs cannot be passed on / Demand expected to rise in February / Prices on the way up	03.02.2017
POLYMER PRICES Polyethylene January 2017: Most producers pass on their higher costs / Demand still slow / Winter lull as pipe grades perform below average / Margin increases in February are a distinct possibility	03.02.2017
POLYMER PRICES PVC January 2017: Ethylene costs have essentially been passed on / Margin improvements put off until February / Increased costs and export opportunities pushing up notations still further	02.02.2017
POLYMER PRICES Standard Thermoplastics Trend January 2017: Cost increases mostly factored in without problems / Raising margins proves more difficult / Quiet start to the year	16.01.2017
